Oktoberfest, an unmissable opportunity for your venue
October marks the return of Oktoberfest, an unmissable event for pubs, breweries, and venues that want to embrace German tradition to attract customers and offer a unique experience. For 2025, we're offering a revamped menu that maintains Bavarian classics but integrates them with modern solutions like Steamì , ensuring speed, versatility, and flavor even during peak times.
Pretzels: the perfect start
Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the pretzel is the undisputed symbol of German street food. It can be served as a snack or accompanied by aged cheeses, speck, sausages, or sauerkraut. Ideal served warm, perhaps reheated in a few seconds with Techfood equipment to maintain its crispiness and warmth.
Brotsuppe: Bread Soup for Everyone
Brotsuppe is a peasant soup made with stale bread, vegetable broth, onion, spices, and grated cheese. Perfect for vegetarians and ideal for serving in to-go portions at events or fairs .
With Steamì , you can regenerate it quickly without altering its flavor and consistency, offering a warm and welcoming solution in just a few seconds.
Sauerkraut: the essential side dish
No Oktoberfest would be complete without sauerkraut , the quintessential side dish. You can serve it in the classic (naturally fermented) version or in a quicker version (stewed with juniper berries, broth, and onion). Serve it with sausages, hot dogs, or pork shanks for the perfect, hearty pairing.
Pork shank: the star of the menu
Pork knuckle is the star of the Bavarian menu. Succulent and aromatic, it pairs perfectly with roast potatoes or mashed potatoes. To optimize preparation without sacrificing quality, you can rely on the Combi Wave , which allows for even cooking in just a few minutes (2:50 for a knuckle).
A true ally for managing high volumes and ensuring impeccable results.
Revisited Apfelstrudel: a sweet finale without seasonality
For a sweet end, nothing beats an apple strudel , but without the rolled ice cream. Serve it with whipped cream or a scoop of classic ice cream, preserving the autumnal flavor of apples, cinnamon, and raisins. It can also be served warm, regenerated with Steamì for quick service. 
Steamì: Your Invisible Ally for a Modern Oktoberfest
Steamì is the perfect Techfood solution for quick and healthy preparations: a compact , flue-free steam wand , ideal for regenerating soups, first courses, side dishes and even desserts.
